" Haha", Sione held his stomach as he laughed," I fooled you again brother Race". Sione chuckled for a while before asking, " How did Brother Race grow so strong in just a single day. Can you tell me I want to get stronger too," Even Magnus who was enjoying the warmth of the sand, sat up to hear what Race wanted to speak.

" I am Reincarnator from the past. A pioneer of the sword magic. A legend reborn, Race Smyth". Race said with gusto. An awkward silence ensued followed by hearty laughter, everyone in the training arena laughed including Race. Sometimes truth sound like the greatest lie.

" Come on Race tell us", this time it was Magnus who asked Race.

" I think my body was still adjusting to the recent breakthroughs and now since it is completely adjusted I was able to show more strength." Race lied." And it was worth it, I was able to beat Sione once", Race chuckled alongwith Magnus as Sione pouted.

" That will be the last time Brother Race will win. I can promise you that." Sione was a bit angry." Get ready to lose Brother Race. Begin the countdown."

1...

" Hey, I..I was just messing with you" Race stuttered.

2...

Sione took a stance. His entire body tensed as he prepared to attack Race.

3... Fight.

Race was sent flying into the ocean before he could even react. " I too was just messing with you, Brother Race." Sione said as Race walked out of the ocean with an ugly bump on his head.

" Why don't we just enjoy the beach till lunch, no training today." Magnus stated ending an argument before it even began. He then handed a recovery booster drug to Race," I think I will leave one for you everyday, so that you can take one after training. you are gonna need it." Magnus said as he kicked a beach ball towards Sione," Lets play "

They had a wonderful time at the simulated beach, they played till lunch. Race and Sione apologized to each other. They went to the cafeteria after washing of the sand. There they had a warm and filling meal. After which Race and Sione went to the Library while Magnus returned to his room.

In the library:

" Brother Race is only an Apprentice mechanic, I am already a beginner mechanic. Then shouldn't I be the one being called Big Brother. I am both stronger and smarter. Haha, From now on call me Big Brother Sione". Sione started to tease Race. " Don't you have something better to do." Race then focused fully on the topic that he had to study.

Seeing that Race was not reacting to his teases Sione started to go through a few books on his own. After finishing the book in hand Sione looked at Race but was surprised to see that Race was so focused that he seemed like a statue. Sione who had better senses felt as if all the light in the room was being focused on Race.

Race who had mastered the art of total concentration in his last life was easily able to access that in this life as well. But unlike yesterday, the mana in the room reacted to his state complete focus. His body was subtly reacting with the ambient mana. It was so subtle that someone like Sione who had with superhuman perception was barely able to feel it. But Sione being inexperienced was unable to perceive that something magnificent was taking place near him.

Race was going learning the topics at record speed. If he was going to keep this pace up he will learn all the topics. He had already learned enough to pass the quiz at the level of apprentice mechanic. But Race wanted to learn everything and pass the test with all the points. And at the pace he was going he will be able to achieve that before the day ends.

Sione was about to go back to his room when he saw Race summon the screen to take the Advancement quizzes. " Wasn't brother Races foundation so low that he had to learn most fundamental things in the Apprentice Mechanic level. Maybe he just trying to check how much he had learned."

Sione wanted to tease Race after Race gets his score back, Only to be surprised by the speed at which Race was answering the questions. Race who had learned every bit of knowledge at the Apprentice mechanic level along with his Advanced Mechanic standard mental capacity was easily able to answer all the questions at a frighteningly high speed.

Race was able to complete the quiz in a tenth of the time most so called geniuses took. While looking at his scorecard he felt the gaze of a stunned little Sione. Who was even more surprised to see Race's score.

100%

Sione himself had achieved this score but his speed was nowhere near Race's speed. Race turned to Sione and said," Work hard little Sione, Or big brother might overtake you." Race sent the the list of essentials to Magnus. He then left a pouting Sione in the library as he walked towards his room.

In Magnus's Room:

Magnus was sitting on one side of the long table in his room. On the other side was a beautiful and mature lady to whom Magnus was reporting various things that happened on the journey.

" It will be taken care of..." just as he was about to complete the sentence his Communicator beeped with a red light. He immediately looked to see what it was, He was stunned to find that race had completed the Apprentice mechanic level in about day.

" What is it Magnus, you seem like you've seen a ghost." the warm voice of the lady was heard.

" It seems that I had seriously underestimated my new brother....."

"...Master".
